Belle - Beauty and the Beast
Why? -
Not many women love reading as much as Belle does. She's very observant, kind, and a little strange, in a good way. She'll launch into musical numbers for no reason. She's a storyteller who finds the beauty in the world whenever she can. And she hates Gaston.
Lola Bunny - Space Jam
Why? -
She's athletic. She's Bugs Bunny's girlfriend. She's opinionated and spunky. And competitive! (And she has bangs.)
Buttercup - The Princess Bride
Why? -
If Westley could endure being captured by pirates, becoming the most legendary pirate on the seas himself, freeclimb up the Cliffs of Insanity, defeat Inigo Montoya in a fencing match, best Fezzik at wrestling and outwit Vizzini in a Battle of Wits, then survive the Lightning Sand, the Flaming Geysers and the ROUSes in the Fire Swamp, and THEN be imprisoned in either the Zoo of Death or the Pit of Despair(your choice), and THEN be put through the MACHINE in order to ride off happily into the night(or not; again, your choice), then wouldn't you say she was some special girl?
And that's not even getting into all the things William Goldman said about her....
Mary Jane Watson - Sam Rami Spider-Man trilogy
Why? -
Tobey Maguire's Peter Parker is such a good character, you instantly fall in love with MJ, too. She sticks by Pete and Harry through everything in their crazy lives, and works her way up into Broadway.
Kristy Lee Cook - American Idol Season 7
Why? -
The field was absolutely loaded with talent this season, but it's hard not to love an Oregon cowgirl who sold her horse to pay for plane fare to auditions in Philadelphia. (She got the horse back.) And she sings country. (This clip is actually "Faithfully" by Journey, but the tone is the same, anyway.) I was extremely displeased when she got booted out of the competition in seventh place, which Damon, Trish and the rest of the AI discussion group could tell you..
The Teenage Girl in Craig Morgan's "That's What I Love About Sunday" Music Video
Why? -
Nobody ever said these make sense....I just thought she was pretty. Besides, it's such a great true-to-life song. And the video was played almost-nonstop on The Country Network all the time.
Shawn Johnson
Why? -
Gymnasts are graceful. And focused. And the Olympics comes around so rarely, you got to support the people from your country. (Plus Canada, being a neighbor, and Australia, cause of the cool accents, and sometimes Great Britain, for the accents.) And she's a little more than a year older than I am, so that made it less weird than most screen crushes are. (It's just a bizarre concept, when you think about it....)
Siobhan Magnus - American Idol Season 9
Why? -
She was quirky. And her voice was different, but not bad. She was my favorite girl this season.
Natalie Portman
Why? -
She's pretty in an everyday way, not a "I'm-a-Hollywood-movie-star" way. And in interviews she seems very down-to-earth. Plus she's just a good actress.
Gwen Stacy - Amazing Spider-Man movies.
Gwen was about the only watchable part of these movies. She's smart(valedictorian of her class), resourceful, and she's a bit of a dork.
Hollie Cavanagh - American Idol Season 11
Why? -
She can sing. (This clip is the first song I could find on YouTube.) And she's pretty in a Natalie Portman type of way. And the way her accent shifts from Texas drawl to classy British English and back in midsentence was hysterical. She was funny.
